Single Zombie Female On Transvaginal Ultrasounds

Texas has just passed a bill and the Virginia, Pennsylvania, and other states' legislatures are considering bills that would require women who are opting for an abortion to first go through a procedure called Transvaginal Ultrasound. No problem, right, just apply some jelly and use a microphone thingy to listen in. Wrong? A transvaginal ultrasound requires a woman to be penetrated by a ten inch wand.

Medical professionals do not consider this a necessary or useful diagnostic test, it's merely another way of punishing women who elect to exercise their Constitutional right to decide what goes on in their own bodies. Many women are calling this procedure a state mandated rape. Imagine a scenario where your wife, daughter, or sister had been raped, then was forced to go through this additional torture. It's unacceptable. It's insane. And it's a painful, lengthy procedure no woman should be forced to go through by orders of a few whackadoodles who want to tell the rest of us what we can and can't do with our bodies.
